What sold me on tuba in Jr. High was its size. I thought it was cool to play the biggest instrument. The real clincher was when, as a 7th grader, I was asked to play tuba with the 8th grade band for the tune "Kansas City". It had a bouncy bass line which I thought was essential. As a 7th grader it also challenged me. All in all it was a very very positive experience and really influenced my decision to stick with it.

My Jr. High director, Ms. Lacy from Lawson, Mo., was very good at enthusiasm.
